Never Far Away
I wonder what he would say
If he were sitting here today
Would he tell me all the things he's seen
Would he say it was okay
Would we talk about the past we shared
Or of what the future holds
Will he give a glimpse of what's in store
And say he's met the Lord
Will he know how much I miss him
And miss the friendship that he gave
Tell me that although he's gone
He's now in a better place
Will we sit and talk for hours
Maybe write a poem or two
Will he play guitar and sing his songs
And say this one's for you
Will he tell me that he cant stay long
But his journey did not end
That he looks down from up above
To guide me as a friend
Will he say he knows I look for him
He hears the prayers that I say
That he will always be my friend
And he is never far away
In loving honor
of

This poem written in tears for an old friend of mine who I owe so much. Edward M Dixon, we were friends at a young age and he is so missed. He has written several poems and songs and had an incredible musical talent and voice. I look forward to one day seeing him again and just sitting and listening to him sing. I miss you my friend.
